For those absolutely stupid things that you see people bring, roll, or toss into your place of business and the people that bring them in.

Read before posting!

Submissions must be something you saw that was odd and out of the ordinary for your work setting. Only original content is acceptable. Do not post pictures taken by others. Automotive and Non-automotive mechanical failure/oddities ONLY.

Posts need not be automotive related, but must follow rule 1.

This is not a place to ask for help troubleshooting your vehicles issues. You can instead post these to our sister subreddit: /r/MechanicAdvice. Posts of this nature will be removed.

If it's not obvious, please include a detailed description of what the problem is or what the thing in the picture does/is supposed to do.

No memes or rage comics.

Do not link photos from Facebook. If you have a photo from FB you want to post, upload it into Imgur then post from there. Linking from FB causes security issues for the persons profile.

Discussions and questions that promote discussion are allowed, but questions cannot be of an /r/MechanicAdvice nature. For example, "What is the worst customer experience you've had?" is allowed while "What's wrong with my car?" is not.

Absolutely no sale site posts. This includes Craigslist, Ebay, Facebook sale groups, etc. For more explanation, see rule 1.

Trend posts or "karma trains" will be regulated at the discretion of the moderators, as they often lead to rule breaking when they get out of hand.

--> If you do not see your submitted post in "new" within 5 minutes, message the mods with the URL to your submission and we can fish it out of the spam filter for you.

No joke. All I can figure is communication between the customer and service adviser must have been vague ("My tire's damaged. Can your guys take a look at it?"), and the SA wrote up the order without having seen the extent of the damage.

The idiot service advisor I worked with wrote up tickets like this regularly. The customer is probably well aware that it's not repairable but the advisor either failed to actually inspect the tire or the fact that it's fucked was lost in communication. So now the advisor is wasting the techs time when he could have pre sold the tire before it even made it into the shop...
